My neighbor's 23 month old boy was in their truck, in their garage.......and he either let the brake off or just took it out of park.  So........down the sloping driveway it rolls, it crashes into their other car which was parked at base of driveway causing domino effect---which heads south,  backwards also.  (Truck still heading east, backwards, with son in cab, across culdesac.) So we have two driverless, runaway vehicles going different directions. The dad sees all this happening and tries to decide which way to run.

He gets the truck stopped, child inside ok.  Truck sustains one small scratch on front fender.  Car (very small car) missed our Jeep and ends up crashed into our van---minimal damage to wheel well of our vehicle.  Unfortunately, their little car has a crunched front end, from their truck smacking it, and the back end has a a bit of damage from hitting our van. Lights broken out and hood/radiator damaged.

Praise God, all the kids that were playing in the culdesac moments before, were all out of harms way.  Whew.

Can you imagine, he's not even two yet and has had his first fender-bender?

About 5 years ago, my baby put an idling car into drive and went right through the garage door from the outside.  Slow motion cruncher.  Dad just got out to go fix the passenger side window---good thing my son didn't get it into reverse!

Stuff happens SO fast.  Watch those little ones.  They learn everything you do so fast. 

 Well, I guess I better get back to blogging about  real homeschooling issues.

Sigh.
